好好享受餘生
問 chatgpt, 100人有多少能活到60歲, 答案是90人. 意思簡單, 有10人(10%)到60前已經死咗.
65, 85人
70, 80人
80, 55人
90, 30人
100, 1-2人
如果你能活到65, 你已經跑嬴了15人(15%). 80的話你跑贏了一半人. 你平時買彩票的時候贏嘅機會係幾多? 所以如果你有80歲你應該已經係人生勝利組嘅成員.
雖然打從60開始你嘅身體唔多唔少都開始出現毛病, 但系你每天都係賺咗返嚟. 既然人生苦短點解唔好好享受剩番嘅時光呢?
呢篇寫得唔好有時間預我會 revise.

20250505 Belief
People with a belief is a thinker because they have to polish their beliefs to match the reality.
People with a belief they know the reality but not satisfy with it. They need a new system of explanation to make themselves feel good.
With a belief.
20250501 蘇格拉底
蘇格拉底數來都係以街頭辯論聞名。
以我嘅生活經驗嚟講佢咁喜歡辯論係因為事物同事情本身就係蒙糊，條線從來都唔清晰。
人類對世事嘅理解通常都只係一個大概，呢一個大概往往同真實嘅本身其實可以好有好大嘅差異。
20250423 History
歷史, 是勝利者寫的, 這點大家都知道, 歷史可以改寫可以扭曲, 但都不是最利害最可怕.
最利害是解釋. 現代人可以用自己的角度去從新解釋歷史, 同一件歷史事件歷史文件, 不同人用不同的角度解釋, 這就是最可怕的.
20250423 Crime Rate
The crime rate of a place is not the no. of crime committed. The crime rate is how many case reported and investigated.
20250416 仁義道德
仁義道德係以教化為手段.
糖衣嘅仁義道德係以利誘同懲罰為手段
呢啲就係聖人與君王嘅分別. 但無論如何, 真又好假又好, 仁義道德必需要擺在最前. 作為小市民就要睇清楚佢哋嘅手段去判別真假.
20250330 AI and Supply
今時今日大家都討論點樣喺生產上面用AI取代人類務求減低成本。
呢個都係用supply side嗰方面嘅考慮，但係大家有冇用demand side去考慮呢？簡單啲講，無論件貨品幾平都好，如果冇demand亦都係冇用嘅。Also, 用AI生產唔代表係零成本。
20250329 AI Photos
用AI將相片改成宮崎駿嘅風格大行其道，使我突然想起當年數碼相機嘅推出。
當年數碼相機推出之後，好似變成人人都識得影相，人人都是攝影大師。尤其是當手機都可以影相再加上有facebook呢啲social media可以post相。呢個風氣就更甚。
對於真係識得影相嘅人，一幅好嘅相片係有佢特定嘅定義。但問題係，現今嘅人仲會唔會用心去追求所為美呢？定係打下咭，擦下存在感就已經心滿意足。
20250321 Buddhism
From the other perspective to learn about Buddhism. You have to ask two main questions.
Q1. Are you preparing to die?
Q2. Are you ready to die?
Based on these two questions, you can have other perspective to interpret the Buddhism or to teachings of Buddha.
20250321 Retirement
When you're planning your retirement, to a certain extent, I think you don't like your job.
20250311 Foreign Language
Don't be scared to speak a foreign language. Remember this
"You speak English because it is your mother language.
I speak English because you can only speak English."
20250306 we grow old together
I sit in my old car and talk to it
You are growing old and same as me
You are having minor problem and same as me
But you can skill keep moving and same as me
One day, you will break down same as me
Let's enjoy our life before we both break down
20250304 一個學者
我終於知道我唔可能成為一個學者。
學者者，以理性科學了解人和事。很利害啊，可惜的是，缺了人性。
學者經深入研究後宣佈人性是不完美的，但因為就係客觀科學分析，向著美好的價值觀就沒有了。因為有一定的價值觀就不科學客觀。
20250226 決定
做決定係要用未來作為考慮點。好多人係做決定嘅時候都會衡量現時嘅狀況而作出一個決定。例如佢現在擁有嘅一切佢覺得都ok，因此佢就維持原狀。
但事實上世界係不停轉，人係不停向前，所以理性地做決定應該係以未來嘅狀況而作出決定。用inflation為例，你嘅錢今日夠洗唔等於喺未來夠洗因為係有inflation。
20250224 生命的軌跡
生命的軌跡。
後生時當我講生命的軌跡的時候我會聯想自己隨著一個軌跡係太空漫遊。突然間會有同另一個人嘅軌跡相遇相交，相遇一段時間之后亦會分開，我就用嚟解釋人嘅原來完去。
今時今日我講生命嘅軌跡用的方法譬如係唔同。我會議大海唯一個比喻，一班人都留咗喺一個水流入邊，隨著水流去漂浮，當然水流亦亦都有佢自己一定嘅軌跡同目的地。當有一個人有佢自己特別嘅需要嘅時候或者有佢自己想法嘅時候，佢就會離開呢個水流，又或者進入咗另一個水流。快如果冇乜特別想法嘅人，就繼續隨波逐流跟住個水流而去。當然其中亦都有啲人會加入反呢個水流，有人有出有入有出有入。
我地做人處事其實都差不多。一般都係跟著這個社會, 跟住個時代走。但突然間有自己嘅想法嘅時候可能我哋就會離開呢個社會同埋時代。舉一個例子我哋都係日出而作日入而息個個都係打工仔，但係弟子突然之間有1日我覺得想嗰一個綠色嘅環保日子，可能我就放棄哂一切我擁有嘅一切，而行入一個鄉下去開始耕田做一個農夫。
20250220 AI
when we use AI, it implies that the answer is not 100% true and being proved. But we still using AI everyday to make decision because we accept the decision in our life no need to be 100% correct even we can by spending more time and effort in it. We are giving up accuracy by convenience.
what will our life be if most of our decision is by guess.

20250110 公平?
呢個係一個有趣嘅故事
有一個農莊主人佢想請臨時工
係朝頭早有一個工人嚟應徵農莊主人叫佢即時開工
去到食中午飯之前又有一個工人嚟應徵農莊主人又叫佢即時開工
午飯過後又有一個工人離認證農莊主人又叫佢即時開工
去到黃昏嘅時候，收工喇，農莊主人向各人派咗一個銀幣作為當日嘅工資
最早開工嘅工人大叫唔公平，佢一早開工做足全日都係得一個銀幣而其他人只係做咗半天又有一個銀幣所以非常之唔公平
農莊主人答，你開工係基於一個契約，而我亦完成契約裏面嘅條款。係呢件事上面同公平有咩關係？
20241229 Not smarter
I am not smarter than you, I just older than you. I went through something that you do not. I know my mistake and how to improve it. I don't have the 2nd chance to face it again but I have a younger you.
If the world has not gone through a huge change, you will face the problem of mine when you reach my age.
20241203 淺草寺
今日坐在淺草寺，腦內就想到
1. 佛學講因果，佛都不能被免。
2. 要不跌入因果，最簡單就是不動，不動就是不生因，果報完就無因無果。
3. 所以就算被打被殺也不可還手，因為是在了因。
4. 但了因並不是只是一世。因地果還生，可能要很多世。
5. 但要保持多世不動，很不可能。
6. 心經講色即是空，空即是色。就是一層突破。因果是被不了，但自性如如，在因果中而不受因果所牽絆，什至善用因果。
20241018 Reason for Yes
you don't give a reason when you say Yes to a request. Then, why do you have to provide a reason when you say No?
To be fair, if somebody asks for a reason for a No, they have to give a reason for the Yes.
20241010 Margret Thatcher
our beliefs become our thoughts
our thoughts become our words
our words become our actions
our actions become our habits
20240923 What is immigrant
what is an immigrant?
An immigrant is a person who contributes to the national revenue without spending it.
Normal citizens spend national revenue when they are small such as on education, and they contribute national revenue when they start to work after school. But an immigrant is not.
From the perspective of a nation, a local newborn is an investment. The nation invests in them and expects in return when they join the labour force. However, the nation loses if the newborn leaves the country.
However, for an immigrant, the story is totally via verse.
20240902
There is no use to counsel a person who is sleeping and dreaming sweetly. Maybe you need to slap them awake first.
20240901 心
we don't know how we retrieve our memory, but when someone talks about a past event, we can recall it, the sound the picture, and the feeling as well. This is the use of the heart (心之用).
From the use of the heart, we know the essence of the heart (心之本). However, we never know how the essence of the heart looks like.
Remember, in ancient times, people don't know anything about the biology of the brain. They know there is a brain but how it works, and the function of different parts of the brain, they never know. The brain is like a black box, it cannot be described.
in Taoism, it mentions that the essence of Tao cannot be seen and heard, but we are so sure its present because we can see, and hear its use.
20240820 Why Japanese is so special
I feel that is why Japanese is so special.
Japanese do as they are without caring about how others think, or how the world change.
they keep their customs as it is, they celebrate the ways they are. At the same time, outsiders really like what they insist on their own ways of life.
20240815 AI
- we need social to cure loneliness, when too much social we need solitude.
- what if, we are brought up by AI.
- we don't need human social interaction anymore
- we have tailor-made interaction
- then, we don't know how to interact with other people
- we don't know how to handle other people's emotions, perspectives, thinking, etc.
- we don't need EQ anymore
- we are self-centered
- I think maybe we interact with other people through AI, AI will become a bridge between humans.

20240815 Work for?
- I once heard that we work not for money/salary
- we work to accumulate our experience or sharpen our skills in one career/field
- once we become experts in the field, it is time to pick a company and job and salary
- So, we don't mind overtime and you don't mind salary, you don't mind working hard because these things are sharpening you to be a successful person in the future
- most people work for money/salary, and what about you?
- this perspective leads to another thing that most company/boss don't like
- where is the loyalty?
- btw, don't kidding. will the company be loyal to its hard-working staff?
20240813 Tax
tax
税高税低？
- 一個國家的運作要錢，錢主要從税收而來。當然有些國家會炒股票，收罰款(無論合理與否)，做生意等等增加收入
- 稅收基本上是由 1. 個人税收 & 2. 公司税收
- 個人的稅收可以是薪俸稅, 銷售稅等
- 公司的稅收可以是利得稅, 關稅等
- 公司的税收是有趣的事情，公司會負責税務嗎？
- 公司會交税但負責的卻不是公司而是客戶個人，因為所有要交的稅都會計算在物價內。
- 所以, 可以說交稅的從來都是個人
- 當一個國家的個人入息税(直接稅)率低是可能嗎？
- 根據以上的理解, 除非國家很懂得搵錢, 否則, 個人直接稅低就表個人間接稅會很高
20240813 money
money.
in the old days, money could be exchanged for gold. People trust gold so they trust money as well, and gold is the basic unit of money.
Nowadays, money no longer be exchanged for gold. We still use money because we trust in the nations that issue money, e.g. the USA, and Japan. So, the basic unit of money is TRUST nowadays.
But, what about if we don't trust the nations any more?
20240812 Looking at the Sky
looking at the sky.
someone know that they can't find out the beginning of the universe so they give up and only focus on present things.
someone know they never find out the beginning of the universe but they still insist looking into it.
20240812 Olympics
2024 Olympics, it gives me an impression that those become popular is not the gold medals winner but the cool guys.
We know that more people like to chase the cool guys in FB instead of the most successful one nowadays.

20240811 接
接
朋友之間貴呼真誠.
自己贊自己, 朋友會戥你高興.
你呻苦時, 朋友會安慰你.
都是出自真心.
若果你聽到朋友說話時你有#13的反應, 或者你說話時你朋友有#13反應, 相信, 你們不是真心朋友.
20240811 人大了, 話越少
人大了, 話越少. 因為大了懂得說話要顧及別人感受.
你贊一下自己又怕傷害到別人弱小心靈. 你嘲笑一下自己又怕別人話你扮晒嘢.
所以, 最後都是不說話, 但別人多說, 你又話佢 show quali, 廢 up.
20240806 Self 自我
self 自我
- a baby doesn't have self and building it day by day.
- some people say the self is the culminating of our memory and experience
- when we have enough memory and experience we know who we are.
- on the other hand, we are the product of what we experienced
during our childhood
- and also we may create our future self by what we do in the present
- In conclusion, the self is changing.
- the last question is who are we before the appearance of the self?
- on the other hand, 無我 equal to think and act like a baby?
- 無我 is the one that hasn't been corrupted by the 後天 environment.
- 無我, is it a basic animal form?
20240805 You Just Donno What They Think
there is no stupid people. you think they are stupid because you don't know their situations and what they treasure.
20240801 You Got Replaced
- 今日見到掃地姐姐, 佢望住部手機, 我問佢睇緊乜? 佢話開屋企部自動掃地機掃地. 我同佢講, 唔好同佢老世講, 唔知佢明唔明.
- yes, automation is all over the city. and I see many frontline staff promoting automation to their customers. But one thing I am not sure is whether they know that when automation is fully executed, they will lose their jobs.
- this is a story of mine. one day when I went to the City to pay land tax, the cashier told me why I could pay it through a computer myself. And then I told her, I knew it, but if I paid it through a computer she would lose her job, I just don't know why she recommended it to me.
20240731 We need a Goal
- human need a goal to work together even just for a reward
- most big corporations have a mission, vision, value, etc. If they don't have one, just yell "You got paid if you work hard" 😄
- for a place, if the common goal (X) disappears, the people will move away to another place holding (X).
- or, if goal (X) is replaced by (Y), then people believe in (Y) will come
Free Will x2
- free will. i think it has certain levels.
- in the most strict sense, there is no free will
- for a slave, there is no free will and they cannot make their own decisions. all decisions are made by their owners.
- for a ordinary people like me, i can make my own decision even it is affected by some factors. but it still my decision that suit me the best.
- for daily living, we don't need the strict sense of free will.
Choice and Free Will
- making a choice yourself doesn't mean that you have free will.
- somebody says I do this but not that, so I have free will.
- do you know what made you make that decision? If you know you are influenced by something in making the decision even if it is your internal factors, you don't have free will (absolute).
- today I am not happy so I bought myself ice cream to smooth myself, do you think you have free will? so your action is influenced by something?
- and, btw, without free will is a matter in our daily life?
- in most cases, I can make a decision freely is far more important than having free will.
😃
thing-in-itself, 物自身
thing-in-itself, 物自身
if we know things through our sensory systems and interpret the signal by our brain, then we cannot know the thing-in-itself, because the thing has been interpreted by another system.
some physicists say that we cannot understand a thing, once we measure it, it is not itself.
Plato has a similar proposition that we cannot only see the shadow of things but not the thing itself.
20240730 We see the same world or not?
- the world I see is not the same as the world you see.
- we see the same physical world but the perception, emotion, feeling, interpretation, etc are not the same.
- no one is in the same world.
- we can confine the world as the physical world only, but it limits "me" as a whole body,
- as a result, you don't know "me". huh? we've heard of it in many movies, haven't we?
- even if we do, the sensory is not the same for everyone. what is red? how red? it is totally different with everyone. no one sees the same red.
20240730 what is time (2) ?
- think about a movie. if it is a 60 mins movie.
- when we are watching the 30th min, we are in the middle of the movie
- before the 30th min, it is the past, after it is the future.
- but
- a 60 mins movie is filmed and all the content is already in the film.
- the beginning and the end of the movie already filmed
- when we watching the 30th min, the end also been filmed which mean that we already know the ending
- if some people watching the ending at the same time we are watching the middle. so, he knows the ending ahead
20240730 what is time?
what is time?
地球自轉一次叫一日？
地球圍繞太陽一圈叫一年？
後來，好似用石英Quartz 來計算時間。
But, all of them are the unit of time or the measure of time, but they are not time itself. so, what is time?
before now is past?
after now is future?
then, what is now?
now is not a static point, it moves.
when you look at (1), this now, but when you look at (2), this is also now and (1) becomes past. so, what is now? (1) or (2)?
